The Home Buying Process in Plain English

Below, I’ve outlined the buying process steps. I can offer you an enjoyable,
informative, no pressure buying experience and introduction to the area.

1 Set-up Initial Meeting Appointment

To set-up a meeting to review suitable property listings, call my office, toll-free,
at 1-800-668-3622 or my direct number (250) 752-2588. Or, if you prefer, use the
Quick Contact form below to let me know that you would like to take a closer look at properties in the area.

2 Review of Candidate Listings

At our first meeting, we will sit down together at the RE/MAX Anchor Realty office
computer and carefully go over listings that suit your needs to produce a list of homes
that you want to tour in-person. If you’re coming to the area from out-of-town, I can advise
on hotels and things to do and see.

3 Booking of Home Tours

I will book appointments and make any other preparations necessary for us to visit each of your selected
listings for an in-person home tour. I will provide you with my Buyers Guide, plus local
and regional publications to help you make the most of the up-coming home tours.

4 In-person Home Tours

Next, we’ll visit each of your selected listings for an in-person tour. This may take 1 to 3
days to see all the homes you want to. A maximum of about 6 homes per day is advisable (more
than that and things can get a bit overwhelming). We want you to enjoy your visit as it’s important
for you to have time to get out and look around at what will be your new home area.

5 Narrow Down the List to the Best Property

As we look at each home, I’ll ask you to rate each home on a scale of 1 to 4 (1 being best). We drop the 3s and
4s and go back a second or third time to look at the 1s and 2s. Eventually narrowing down the options to select the
property that best suits your needs.

MY CONTACT INFO

Another thing to consider as a buyer is Oceanside’s close proximity to so many other areas: we’re
2 hours from Tofino, a couple of hours from Victoria; we’re a half-hour from Nanaimo and Courtenay.
Nanaimo, of course, is a 1.5 hour ferry ride to Vancouver.
So, in leaving here, you have world-class destinations in close proximity. Also, we have skiing at Mt. Washington
(which) is fifty minutes away, sea kayaking, sailing, fishing, scuba - we have it all!
